Scooter, Dirt bike, ATV...

[Zlatan]

Hello...

I'm looking for an experienced person. Someone who has owned or owns a dirt bike / scooter / ATV...

I am saving up my money to buy something of those, but for me its a really hard decision. It would be my first bike, something that's good for a start. So I'm looking for something not too big, something that's not hard to maintain (not costly)...

Scooters; Have enough storage, speed is okay aswell as size. Very, very sexy.
Dirt bikes; Don't have much storage, are faster and sexier, size is alright with me.
ATV; I don't know why I mentioned it. Looks sexy, is fast, awesome. I could afford it though.

For a start I wanted to buy a Tomos, as its very economic, cheap, small... Perfect for a start, however, it vibrates alot, isn't very fast, kinda bad looking, doesn't even have a speedometer.

So any suggestions? I'm having a really tough time having to decide what to buy..

I guess you are living in a city, if you do get a scooter. It's made for city streets also it's looking awesome

Yeah I guess so

I live in city and I got a dirtbike moped:

It's very easy to maneuver around, easier than a scooter.
Less chance to fall than a scooter(bigger wheels).
Very easy to learn to drive if you do not know already, you just hold clutch and tap with a foot.
More control.
Handles just as good during winter as in summer.

So I'd go with dirtbike

dirt bike is an excellent choice

I currently have a Yamaha WR125X supermoto - Its great for short commutes, maneuvering through city traffic and its a good looking bike too. As a first bike it's a great choice the only downside i see with it and similar bikes is the tall seat which can be quite discouraging for new riders.
If the height isn't an issue and the lack of storage space then i'd recommend a supermoto.

I knew there was something I forgot to mention, damn it. What's your budget if you don't mind me asking?

What's your budget?

There's no better bike/moped than a Kreidler Florett or Zundapp. You do need to have some knowledge on mechanic side, and a passion for goodlooking bikes, though.

It says scooter, you don't like my scooter?!

Just get a 50cc moped for a start, there are tons of models out there.. You can choose between scooter, moped or dirt bike, with low power so less danger to get harmed..
